Match Preview
Corsham Town will host Slimbridge in the FA Cup on Saturday, 2 August, as both teams look to make an early statement in the tournament. Corsham has struggled recently, managing just one win in their last five matches, which raises concerns about their confidence heading into this fixture. In contrast, Slimbridge comes into the game with a solid run of form, boasting three wins in their last five outings. This difference in momentum could play a crucial role in the match.
Historically, the head-to-head record favours Slimbridge, with only one win for Corsham in their last ten encounters. Notably, these matches have been low-scoring, with no games seeing over 2.5 goals or both teams scoring. This trend suggests that if Corsham is to have any chance of success, they will need to tighten their defence and find a way to break through Slimbridge’s backline. With Slimbridge's current form and historical advantage, they will likely be the team to watch in this matchup.
